When I hear the song Rise Up by Andra Day, this picture is what I visualize when she sings:
And I’ll rise up
I’ll rise like the day
I’ll rise up
I’ll rise unafraid
I’ll rise up
And I’ll do it a thousand times
And I’ll rise up
High like the waves
I’ll rise up
In spite of the ache
I’ll rise up
And I’ll do it a thousand times again
For you
For you
For you
For you
We are born again each day, with each new sunrise, even when our lives seem to be filled with darkness and heartache, the sun will rise and shine its light on the promise of a new day, a new beginning.
